So when do you start the tour, Inks, so us unfortunate poor saps can experience the true audio joy that your experienced ears apparently haven't been deprived of? Of course, assuming that the UM 3DDs is actually a pair of IEMs that you have heard (and just not your definitive views base on some chart you've seen.

* Cue scene from "Good Will Hunting" where Robin Williams finally realizes, and then proceeds to school Matt Damon in the difference between knowing, and actually experiencing firsthand.*

eric have you found any other tips that excel/improve vs the stock Cardas one yet? Forget if they said they will offer more of their own at some point.

Oh nice I see you updated your rankings. That's impressive. TO THE TOP!

Yeah meng, Jpn is just weird. I mean on the surface they appear to be so conservative and reserved but they have one of the most craziest cultures in the world esp. their contemporary pop one. If you are gonna make pon no how are you gonna pixel censure the damn thing, c'mon stop beating around the bush!!! .......

Wait this ain't The Hype Thread???

edit: Holy crap once we brought up Jpn, Mr. Joe Bloggs ninja his way in here like a boss!!!

Good job using those CKS1Ks as a disguise... that's the thing though, no one in their collective have heard nor measured this particular iem. That graph is from some "trusted" 3rd party that supposedly did a measurement of the LIMITED RED EDITION of these CKS1000s if my memory is correct.

Now we got that outta' the way, please enlighten us with your insight regarding Jpn Joe, i know those undies on that head-fi head of yours has incredible wisdom.

LOL
I got nothing meng. Maybe all that radiation from WWII transformed them into a slightly different species

The CKS1000 measurement doesn't even look bad for what it is... A steady linear boost starting from 1kHz and peaking at the "clubbing" bass around 80-100Hz. The treble could be smoother but if it's not giving you sibilance it's not really bothering you.

haha good to know that even that doodle art graph doesn't seem THAT bad. Someone with a set of really well done/ burned to a crisp set of CKS1Ks should send it in to Rinks to be measured tbh. But from what little i have gathered Rin doesn't like ATH stuff all that much for some strange reason. Guess these 1Ks will continue to be one of those graph elusive creatures, which makes them THAT much mo' interesting. Staying ninja with it like BOSS!!!

... thought head-fi only consist of this discovery thread. Oh wait n/m there is also that anime thread.

Looks like all this talk about Jpn and pon no is able to trap us a nice lil' panda as well. :)

Happy to see you here meng.

edit: so how do they compare sound signature wise??? Natural/ artificial tonality??? Bass depth/ texture/ quantity & quality, forwardness/ lushness of mids and extension/sparkle of treble??? i dunno just us a lil' short sweet and concise comparo between the two would be nice.

That's why the birthrate spiraled down the drain man. Ain't nobody got a clue as to what to do when they're down there. Colecovision in the age of 4K, it's like some kinda poetic, dichotomous, wabi sabi ****

Shutdown aside, I'm glad I live in the US of A, otherwise I'd never know what to do with the knob in order to adjust the volume ;)

All I have are "SHE3580", "Somic" and MH463. Oh and "EQ" I'm subscribed to this threadall along yo, saw the CKS1000 graph and that's what I commented on. Then saw the hilarious pixel censor comment on this page and linked the homies from the anime thread to here. So there you have it
